Everything has it's Time and Everything Ends

 
 Doctor Who "School Reunion" Krillitane Skasis Paradigm loop



(The Headmaster has entered the room.) 

FINCH: 
Let the lesson begin. Think of it, Doctor. 
With the Paradigm solved, reality becomes clay in our hands. 
We can shape the universe and improve it. 

DOCTOR: 
Oh yeah? The whole of creation with the face of Mister Finch? 
Call me old fashioned, but I like things as they are. 

FINCH: 
You act like such a radical, and yet all you want to do is preserve the old order? Think of the changes that could be made if this power was used for good. 

DOCTOR: 
What, by someone like you? 

FINCH: 
No, someone like you. The Paradigm gives us power, but you could give us wisdom. Become a God at my side. Imagine what you could do. Think of the civilisations you could save. Perganon, Assinta. Your own people, Doctor, standing tall. The Time Lords reborn. 

SARAH: Doctor, don't listen to him. 

FINCH: 
And you could be with him throughout eternity. 
Young, fresh, never wither, never age, never die. 
Their lives are so fleeting. So many goodbyes. 
How lonely you must be, Doctor. Join us. 

DOCTOR: 
I could save everyone. 

FINCH: 
Yes. 

DOCTOR: 
I could stop The War. 

SARAH: 
No. The universe has to move forward. Pain and loss, they define us as much as happiness or love. 
Whether it's a world, or a relationship, everything has its time. And everything ends. 

(The Doctor throws a chair at the big screen, smashing it.) 

DOCTOR: Out!
